Features & Benefits

Product Highlights
  • With a Shore hardness close to a 70D construction helmet, this filament will allow you to create semi-rigid, wear-resistant functional structures while remaining flexible.
  • This FDM thermoplastic polyurethane suitable for outdoor use is ideal for creating silent blocks, hard wheels, soles, pipes, shock absorbers, orthopedic prostheses, safety equipment, etc.
Advantages
  • Low temperature flexibility down to -32°C.
  • UV resistant.
  • Abrasion resistant.

Usage Tips

Impression

With printability parameters close to standards, the Nanovia TPU 70D filament can be used with the majority of 3D printers on the market equipped with a closed enclosure.

  • Extrusion temperature: 230°C.
  • Chamber temperature: 50°C.

Post treatment

Unlike the more flexible TPU and TPE, it is possible to sand the Nanovia TPU 70D.

Storage & Handling

Storage
  • It is advisable to store your coils in a dry place, if possible accompanied by desiccant.
  • To ensure a perfect impression, it is advisable to steam your filament at 60°C for 4 hours or more, when the spool has been exposed to the open air for a long period.
